I'm not used to seeing that machine gun on a HMMWV!

Where do you think I got it, Chris? Well, actually this one came from the DVIDS site, and my point still stands - it made me look twice, just as the AMV made Heartless look twice. You're the geek about things like this I *used* to be, but now have too many competing interests to keep up with being up on all the variants of all the military vehicles. I miss those days sometimes. Of course, if I quit spending 3 hours a day bloggin' and just read and surfed again, I could be that geek again! But I hired two slugs who hardly ever post any more (worth every penny I pay 'em, too) so I still gotta do what I do to feed the beast!

Very cool, but that gun cehicle combo isn't that rarem the Iraqi army uses it a lot too. Try looking through some of the photo essasy at [link=http://www.defendamerica.mil]Defend America[/link] lots of very cool stuff there.

It's the Finnish Patria 8x8 AMV with the Oto Melara Hitfist 30P turret and 30mm ATK MK 44 gun. Cheers

And I was trying to figure out why there was what looked like a BMP-2 turret on a LAV/Stryker. U, because it's not a LAV.
